I've looked back through the archives and find some references to problems configuring and/or building gdbserver for mips-linux.

I'm attempting to build gdb/gdbserver with --target=mips-linux as well, using gdb-5.1.1. Have the earlier issues (they looked to be 1-2 years old) been resolved or am I still looking at a "manual build" process? I'm getting lots of errors with the build, although the configure seems to go OK. x86 host, linux-mips target.

Thanks for any help you can provide,

I tried the gdb+dejagnu-20020305 snapshot recently and both gdb and gdbserver built without problems. IIRC gdbserver was still broken in gdb-5.1.1.
I haven't used the newly built gdbserver yet, though.

Thanks. I used the 20020311 snapshot and it built like a champ.

As Johannes said, use the current CVS snapshot. MIPS/Linux support for gdbserver was only contributed about a month ago. I'd appreciate bug reports if it does not work for you, especially as I only tested little-endian.

OK, I'll keep up with it. I'm doing big-endian.
